G scale trains are large railroads that are commonly used as garden railroads. G scale trains use the largest and oldest track size. If you are building a large layout, you may need an entire room. A hobbyist that loves the outdoors will really love building big g scale trains and layouts outdoors. You won’t have to use many artificial materials to create outdoor scenes. Live plants and soil can be used. If you enjoy building bridges and structures by hand, there are kits that are for outdoor use that can be obtained for that purpose.

A hobbyist can create rivers and streams for g scale trains. Tunnels can be made using real rock. Under lament for rails can be made with real gravel. Town and country size is only limited by garden or yard space. G scale trains come with all the modern features.
Locomotives with digital command control can be obtained as well as digital sound, operational lighting, and real smoke. Rolling stock is available with operational doors and lighting. Cars can be uncoupled electrically. Machinery built for g scale trains can be used to load and unload cargo. You can use flex track for smoother operation as opposed to short section track that has to be assembled piece by piece. Flex offers more options in turning radius and length. G scale trains have powerful engines that come in different sizes, some as long as two feet in length. The size allows locomotives and rolling stock to be highly detailed. Self powered remote control engines can be used with g scale trains instead of electrically charged rails therefore weather will not be a big issue. If your g scale trains are in a covered environment, power will be optional. If your setup is indoors, you can be much more creative with your electronic features in your small town or city setup. Either way, you want your layout to be as functional as possible for your g scale trains.
